I. College Foundation Day Celebration

Kendrapara Autonomous College commemorates its Foundation Day on the 12th February every year

since its inception in 1959 in the midst of it students, teachers, employees and invitees from different

fields of the society. The celebration focuses on the history, goal and the mission of the college with

recollection of the founders and the subsequent eminent persons connected with the gradual growth and

glorification of the institution.

On this day the institution has been awarding Dinabandhu Sahu Smruti Sanman with a cash award of

Rs.5,000/- subsequently enhanced to Rs.10,000/- and a citation since 2002-03 to an eminent personality

of the state belonging to any discipline, Academic or Social Services. The college also on this occasion

honours the teachers and employees retiring from this institution and also to those who began their career

here and retired from other institutions to honour and acknowledge their significant contributions and

services to this college.

The college also awards the Toppers, Best Graduates and the Best Performers of different literary and

cultural activities with medals, cash prizes and certificates from sources of college fund and different


endowments instituted by the distinguished Donors.

Smruti Sanman. 16 nos. of staff and 25nos. students were felicitate and awarded respectively.

The objective behind such celebration is to make awareness and to imbibe the best practice and the

continuance of such tradition among all for sustenance of the quality thought and activities towards the

potentiality of excellence of the college by everyone’s contribution to a unified and holistic growth.

II. Indian Culture Class

The Indian Culture class is the most important distinctive feature of this College. Every week, on

Thursday at 12.30PM. this class is engaged by one of the teachers of the college. He speaks on

some aspect of the glorious Indian Culture. The purpose of the class is twofold. In the first place,

it brings home to our students and teachers alike the significance of the Indian culture,

particularly in the present context when the western culture has become so much attractive to the

present generation of young men and women. In the second place, it widens the horizon of

knowledge of our students and teachers. With these two purposes in view, the Indian Culture

class is engaged every week unfailingly.

To exert a sobering influence on the young minds of our students, the Geeta Gyan Jagnya is

celebrated every year. Under the auspices of Geeta Gyan Jagnya, a series of lectures on the

Bhagabat Geeta are delivered by eminent Geeta Scholars invited from outside the college for the

benefit of our students and teachers. No doubt, it has achieved its purpose to a very great extent.

Swami Pragyanandaji and Baba Balia, famous preachers on Hinduism, have visited the college &

spoke on occasions.

Analysis of the Feedback from Stakeholders in 2014-15.

Feedbacks given by Students, Parents, Almuni & Employees on different aspects of the

institution were analysed by a Committee comprising the Principal as Chairman, Admn. Bursar,

Academic Bursar, IQAC Member & some senior Faculties as members in the month of May of

the Academic Session. As analysed the Feedbacks were broadly divided into two categories,

such as, Satisfaction & expectation.

Students

Satisfied with the Academic content, Teaching Materials, support of the Faculty & their

knowledge base, Exams. & Evaluation, Library facilities including book- bank & reprography,

Campus facilities like, Hostel, Canteen, Health Centre, Co-operative Store, Gardens,

Playground, Bank, Post-Office, Practising School, IGNOU & Temple.

But, the expect that the Career Counselling and placement Cell, Opening of PG Course and more

hostel accommodations should be geared up to make the College better.

Parents

Satisfied with the present functioning of the College as a model premier Institute of the District

as well as the state & they expect that opportunity for higher studies like Master Degree

Vocational Subject for employability and expansion of hostel Infrastructure to accommodate the

Students coming from the district & neighbouring places of the district.

Alumni

Satisfied with the improving status of the institution from Kendrapara College to Kendrapara

Autonomous College with CPE Status & different centres like Centre for Refresher Course,

Centre for Research on Local Culture & Heritage, Centre for Self-defence for Girls, & Centre

for IGNOU.

And, they expect that the College should be a University having facilities of many PG courses &

Centre for Research of Biodiversity & Conservation, Buddhism Local Culture & Heritage &

Industrialization as the College is surrounded by Bhitarkanika Sanctuary, Paradeep, Ratnagiri,

Udayagiri, Lalitgiri & Kalinga Nagar.

Employer

Satisfied with the Academic Co- curricular & Extra-curricular activities of the College, but they

expect that the College should open PG, B. Voc., B. Prof. Programmes and go for NAAC Re-

accreditation and retain the previous “A” Grade to be University as per the parameters of RUSA

& Govt.
